In today’s advancing
technological era digitalization has played a major hand in the development of
technological usage. Everywhere from domestics to small scale industries and to
large scale worldwide spread industries we have started making the prudent use
of technological framework. The application of scientific rules and laws has
brought our world so much ahead of times that every single task needs to apply
it one way or the other. In fact, to carry out any activity systematically we
apply the scientific approach. This application is what technology is all about
and it has made us bid adieu to the simplicity of earlier times but that is
only for the better. Several of our tasks can be easily concluded by using
correct form of technology sensibly. Counters are one such requirement of today
without which we cannot deal with many day to day counting activities of ours. Digital Counter is the most suitable
instrument for this purpose.
Counting as the word means
literally, is an operation of getting the record of how many times the
occurrence of any particular event has taken place and this operation can be
best performed by Digital Counter.
An electronic device Digital Counter
is which works on a simple principle of sequential pulse based logic. It gets
the count of numbers through shifting of binary digits and displays the result
on the screen in terms of Decimal digits. Take Digital Alarm as an example of
Digital Counter application. This is the simplest form of counting practices
electronically and displaying results digitally. Not in terms of exemplary
usage of Digital Counter we can explain this product as the world around us
makes its use in plenty from clocks, watches, microwave ovens, VCRs to Computer
Memory Pointers. High end application of Digital Counters is witnessed
especially in computers as memory pointers. Even automobiles industry utilizes
it during testing of vehicles.
When it comes to what
specifications of Digital Counter is
then we can note down following:
1.
Counts presented in both the directions that is
as forward and as backward loop
2.
Precisely counting the event occurrences
3.
Very Accurate in counting
4.
In Science labs its efficiency helps in safely
and accurately recording precise readings
5.
Easily counts the numbers which are cumbersome
in normal human practices
6.
Very economical, easy to operate, handle and
maintain
The design of Digital Counter and
its construction is far easier than many machinery products. Here is the theory
of Digital Counter Construction-
Single bit storage and counting device
flip flop is used in collective numbers as basic element that after being fed
by clock pulses increases the digit count by one which is recorded and shown on
the screen. The logic is simple sequential one that goes on counting one by one
the numbers. There are many different types of Digital Counters available that
differ in usual practice but being same fundamentally. Among these many
counters the best one is considered to be binary or ripple counter that makes
use of asynchronous clock pulse and J-K Flip Flops.
